Excellent care
I have left my dogs with Aprile for a number of years now for times from as little as a week up to 6 weeks. They are always well looked after and come home happy and healthy. The kennels are clean and there are very good outdoor areas for daytime play. Aprile provides excellent care.

Fabulous kennel
Fabulous kennel. Aprile is very thorough and incredibly caring. She took such great care of our two kelpies and even managed to tire them out! The play areas are big and provide entertainment for the dogs. Highly recommend Barkers Boutique.

First stay
We took our pet Maltese Shitzu, Macy to Barkers for the first time last weekend. We cannot express how pleased we are to have found Aprile and her amazingly well thought out kennels. On our first day away Aprile sent us photos and let us know how Macy was coping with her stay, she was loving it! This set our minds at ease.
If you live in the Blayney- Cowra area I cannot say enough how good this place is for our treasured fur babies.

Superb
My small dog found her other Mum! She took to Aprile instantly as though she had known her forever. Absolutely no hesitation to leave her there once we all met. Could not be happier : )

Barkers Boutique
This was our first time visiting Aprile and the BB with Pippa. Couldn't be happier with the care she took of our baby and we will certainly be back. Nothing was too much trouble - a very professional and caring business.

5 Paws for excellence
Have used Barker's Boutique Holiday Kennels & Cattery in the past many times. Would highly recommend Aprile for the care she has given our rescue dog Rosie. The facilities are clean & well maintained. Thank you Aprile.

Exceptional care and professionalism
When booking my cat into the cattery, everything was so professional. Even from the first email exchange and phone call booking. Dropping my cat in, I was given a welcome pack of information and shown around the cattery and enclosed outdoor yard. Aprile is extremely thorough, and let me know the day after dropping my cat in how he was doing (completely unprompted text message with photo attached)! I was so relieved during my week away that he was being well looked after. Each cat gets their own roomy, private cage with visual separators between cages - as well as their own little outdoor area and litter box. Aprile also lets cats out individually during the day into a large, netted, outdoor area full of grass and perch areas with wonderful vistas. I couldn't hear the kennel/dogs from the cattery building, which was a huge bonus. Proof was in the pudding when I picked up my cat - he didn't want to leave! He was snoozing happily in his cat tree and happily snuggled with Aprile before going into his cat carrier. Usually my cat is trembling in his carrier on drives to and from the vets etc, but he was very content and relaxed on the drive home after being at Barkers Boutique. This is absolutely chalk and cheese compared to another kennel/cattery I have used in the past in the Orange region (i.e. when picking my cat up he was found trembling in another cat enclosure because a different cat had gotten into his bed and taken over his litter box - with dogs barking right outside the cattery window... needless to say, he came home after that long weekend shaking, extremely thirsty, and hard to settle).
In short, I would not hesitate to use Barkers Boutique again and I cannot thank Aprile enough for taking such great care of Percy. I have no doubts she would exceed my expectations every time.

Home now
We have just brought our two felines home after three days/two nights away and they were completely carm on our trip home to Flyers Creek.
We have not seen this before as we go away often sometime twice a week - for work.
They got home back to normal without any fretting.
The inclosers were a little dated but completely comfortable and their garden run was a bonus!
Aprile gave us feed back while we were away as this was their first time in a new environment.
Very happy with the outcome.

The truth hurts Not at Barkers Boutique
"The Truth" is a pleasure to share. Aprile runs her kennels like a tight ship. Intercom gated entry to a Secure, Professional, Friendly, Rightly worded - Holiday Kennels & Cattery.
It's cat heaven with Inside/outside enclosures plus fully covered large garden time included. Your Dogs spend time away from their kennel daily in segregated outside grassed enclosures, with shading and paddling pool. Fencing lines have concrete paths along the base for added security, & no mess of mud. Boarding prices are very compeditive. Plus everyone gets daily treats.
This review is not set up as I want people to book at Barkers and be as happy as we and are animals clearly are with Aprile.

A great holiday destination for pets
We had our feline babies boarded with Aprile recently and they were very well looked after. The runs were clean and bright. There is an enclosed outdoor part of the run which both cats explored as soon as they settled into their holiday home. Aprile is very thorough, her attention to detail is amazing. We felt very comfortable leaving our cats in her care. Thanks Aprile for looking after Napoleon and Chucky. Highly recommend!!

Cat Heaven
My two cats love it here. Being inside cats they get to experience being outside (enclosed). Sometime I feel as though my Ragdoll does not want to come home from his holiday! April does such a wonderful job.

An awesome place for pet boarding
We know when our pets stay at Barker's, they are well looked after and safe.

Cats Castle
The warm and caring attention our cat Iris receives from the owner, Aprile, is exceptional. The sub-title could easily be 'Cats Castle'. Our cat always seems to be glad to arrive, greets the other cats, heads for her usual spacious 'suite' and gets a cuddle from Aprile. Highly recommended.

Barkers Boutique (excellent)
We have been using Barkers Boutique for over ten years and we have come to trust April to look after our dogs. We have observed her loving concern for animals . We feel we can go away with complete peace of mind and confidence that our beloved animals are really well cared for . It appears by our dogs behaviour that she is happy to go there , she shows no signs of anxiety or stress which is agreat comfort to us . We feel Barkers Boutique is the best kennel in the district and would not consider placing our dog anywhere else.

Excellent dog grooming
Excellent, thorough, kind and careful grooming. My dog has a very unusual thick coat and after being very expertly groomed he is so much more comfortable and happy. He is grass seed free and cool in the summer heat. Thank you We will be back

Doggy Day Care
It is obvious April loves animals and we felt very comfortable leaving Zoe with her for the day while we attended our grandson’s birthday nearby.
Zoe got to play all day with another small dog in a grassy, well fenced enclosure and was very tired when we got her back to our caravan.
The property has great security and April is very easy to communicate with.
Zoe loved her going home dog biscuit treats. Thank you!

Solo & Cherry
My dogs have never been out of my care so it was with some trepidation that I placed them for doggie day care. I needn't have worried. Aprile was on recommendation and now I can pass on that recommendation. Secure and spacious runs and spotlessly clean...a rural idyll that I am sure my dogs enjoyed! Many Thanks!

Doggie Day Spa
Our long-haired fur baby needs to be clipped to be comfortable in the warmer weather. Aprile looks after him, gives him a trendy haircut and he comes home a new dog. Leo just loves visiting Barkers.
